| * | | cfg80211: pass a channel definition structJohannes Berg2012-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of passing a channel pointer and channel type to all functions and driver methods, pass a new channel definition struct. Right now, this struct contains just the control channel and channel type, but for VHT this will change. Also, add a small inline cfg80211_get_chandef_type() so that drivers don't need to use the _type field of the new structure all the time, which will change.

| * | | cfg80211: remove remain-on-channel channel typeJohannes Berg2012-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As mwifiex (and mac80211 in the software case) are the only drivers actually implementing remain-on-channel with channel type, userspace can't be relying on it. This is the case, as it's used only for P2P operations right now. Rather than adding a flag to tell userspace whether or not it can actually rely on it, simplify all the code by removing the ability to use different channel types. Leave only the validation of the attribute, so that if we extend it again later (with the needed capability flag), it can't break userspace sending invalid data.

| * | | mac80211: fix managed mode channel flags handlingJohannes Berg2012-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If ieee80211_prep_channel() decides that HT should be disabled (because the HT IEs from the AP were invalid) it will set the IEEE80211_STA_DISABLE_HT to not send HT capabilities to the AP when associating. If this happens during authentication, the flag will be lost and we send HT frames, even if the channel config was set up for non-HT. This can lead to issues. Fix this by always resetting the ifmgd flags to zero when the channel context is released so that the flag resetting in ieee80211_mgd_assoc() isn't necessary. To make the code a bit easier move the call to release the channel in ieee80211_set_disassoc() to the end of the function together with the flag resetting (which needs to be at the end to avoid timers setting flags.)

| * | | mac80211: in ADHOC don't update last_rx if sta is not authorizedAntonio Quartulli2012-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It does not make sense to keep a station alive if it is not authorised at all. If IBSS/RSN is used it could also be the case that something went wrong during the keys exchange and the stations ended up in a not recoverable state. By not updating last_rx we are giving the station a chance to be deleted and to start the key exchange once again from scratch.

| * | | cfg80211: use DS or HT operation IEs to determine BSS channelJohannes Berg2012-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, mac80211 checks the DS params IE if present and uses it for the (primary) BSS channel, instead of the one that the frame was received on. This is particularly useful in the 2.4 GHz band since a frame is often received on one of the adjacent channels due to overlap. Move this code to cfg80211 so other drivers also do this. Additionally, on 5 GHz, in particular with some (possibly) upcoming changes in 802.11ai and duplicate transmissions when wider channels are used, something similar happens. So if present, also use the (primary) channel information contained in the HT operation IE. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
| * | | mac80211: disable HT advertising unless AP supports itJohannes Berg2012-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the AP doesn't support HT, or more importantly if it does but we have to disable it because its IEs are broken, don't advertise HT support in our association request.

| * | | mac80211: fix RX chains configurationJohannes Berg2012-11-23

Fix this by checking the 40 MHz support only for the code that sets the 40 MHz channel not the complete HT code block. This also means the HT20 channel type will always be set in the changed code block so there's no need to set it in case we override the AP due to invalid IEs in the probe response/beacon. The indentation is a bit quirky, but I'm rewriting this code for VHT support so this will change again very soon. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

When I looked into it, I realised that the code was completely broken as it unassigned the channel contexts when suspending, which actually means they are destroyed. Eliad Peller then pointed out that we also need to remove the channel contexts from the driver. When I looked into this, I also noticed that the code isn't handling the virtual monitor interface correctly (if it exists.) Fix this by calling just the driver methods (if they are implemented) instead of using the channel context management code. Also add reconfiguration for the virtual monitor interface.

Since it's a 64-bit value it can't really wrap, but catch that case anyway since it most likely points to a bug somewhere. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | | | mac80211: combine status/drop reportingJohannes Berg2012-10-30

The socket option is also reported when an skb is dropped to guarantee that the copy in the IDR tree is freed and status is reported to userspace. However, when a frame is dropped, no nl80211 status is reported. This can cause userspace to stop making progress while waiting for a status notification. Combine the nl80211 and socket option status reporting into a new function and call it in both places -- when the status comes in from the driver and when the skb is dropped. While at it, also simplify the code in the nl80211 portion a bit. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | | | mac80211: handle TX power per virtual interfaceJohannes Berg2012-10-30

The channel context introduction completely broke this though and in fact I had disabled TX power configuration there for drivers using channel contexts. Change everything to track TX power per interface so that different user settings and different channel maxima are treated correctly. Also continue tracking the global TX power though for compatibility with applications that attempt to configure the wiphy's TX power globally. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
* | | | cfg80211: allow per interface TX power settingJohannes Berg2012-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TX power setting is currently per wiphy (hardware device) but with multi-channel capabilities that doesn't make much sense any more. Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.
